Today’s tip comes from Exeter where the winning stable from 2007 and 2008 are sure to make a bold bid. Hughie Morrison is a better known Flat trainer but although he makes few forays into the ‘bumper’ arena, he rarely comes away empty handed, boasting a 40 per cent strike-rate, so it’s time to side with his Sakhee colt COUSIN KHEE.

Today’s tip comes from Pontefract where an interesting newcomer looks to have decent claims. BOOGIE SHOES represents a top in-form stable and it would be no surprise if he made a winning start to his career. Michael Jarvis is no slouch when it comes to training first-time-out winners and this son of Bertolini comes from a line of decent campaigners.

Today’s tip comes from Kempton where Andrew Balding gives a smart performer on the flat his debut over hurdles. HATTON FLIGHT is taken to make a winning debut over timber after racking up nine victories on the level. He could simply prove too classy for these rivals if taking to hurdles.

Today’s tip comes from Catterick where AAMAN looks to have a really good chance. The horse put in a great show last time out and, although that was over a shorter trip, he has won over 16f before. His stable are in great form and he might lead from post to post.

Today’s tip comes from Newmarket where Mark Johnston and Kieren Fallon look to continue a fine strike rate. DORDOGNE was mightily impressive when scoring by an eased down 4 1/2-lengths on his racecourse debut over 1m1f at Goodwood last month and there should be a lot more to come.

	Dordogne	3 points	Currently 9/4

Today’s tip comes from Nottingham where the well bred HIGHLAND PARK has a good chance of opening his account. There was plenty to like about his debut effort at Pontefract last month and that experience is likely to have benefitted him greatly. This son of Pivotal ought to have few problems with today’s underfoot conditions and he is fancied to get off the mark.

	Highland Park	2 points	Currently 2/1
	15:50 Nottingham Jockey: R L Moore Trainer: Sir Michael Stoute	Course : Nottingham Distance : 1m 2f Runners : 16

Today’s tip comes from Uttoxeter where a horse from the Twiston-Davies stable has an easy race to continue on the winning vein. ACKERTAC still has room for improvement in his jumping, but he had plenty in hand over 2m5f here last month and a reproduction of that effort would probably make him tough to beat this afternoon.

	Ackertac	3 points	Currently Evens

Today’s tip comes from Huntington where MAWSEM is in with a good shout of completing a quick fire double. The horse stepped up on a couple of solid placed efforts when scoring gamely in this sphere at Southwell last time and, with Peter Carberry cancelling out his 7lb penalty this afternoon, he could take some stopping in his bid to complete the double.

	Mawsem	2 points	Currently 4/1

Today’s tip comes from Salisbury where a talented debutant looks to get off to a winning start. Andrew Balding’s newcomer CHEF, who holds an entry in the Racing Post Trophy, won’t need to be anything too special to go close in today’s race and word from the stable is that he could go on to achieve big things.

Today’s tip comes from Ffos Las where a horse, in extremely good heart at present, hopes to get back on the winning trail. POINTS OF VIEW was bidding for a four-timer when his winning run came to an end in a competitive event at Market Rasen latest but he remains on an upward curve and a 1lb drop in the handicap could allow him to regain the winning thread today.
